To find your torso length, have a friend measure your back along the spine (as shown in the illustration) from the level of your iliac crest (the top of your hipbones) to your C7 (the knobby bone at the base of your neck).
To determine your hipbelt size measure around your hips, not your waist. A properly fitted hipbelt rides centred over the hipbones and needs to be very snug; after all it will be carrying the bulk of the pack's weight. The padded portion should wrap well around your hips, leaving a gap of 6-15cm between the tips of the pads when securely tightened.
Overall Fit: in a good fit, there should be no pressure points and no gaps between your body and the pack. Dial in the fit when you have some weight in your pack by snugging down the hipbelt and harness, position the sternum strap lightly about 5cm below your collarbones and finally tighten the load lifter straps to draw the load solidly against your back.
The Aether Pro 70 is a lean and mean pack for moving fast and getting the job done, designed for experienced backpackers, mountaineers and adventurers and perfect if you appreciate efficiency and have your own specific organisation system based on your unique needs. It's made with lightweight yet durable fabrics, one zip and strengthened hardware for worry-free dependability. Both the hipbelt and harness are interchangeable and the hipbelt can be custom molded to achieve the perfect fit for you. If you wish to shave even more weight off the pack you can remove the top lid, side compression straps, ice tool loops and hipbelt pockets. Other features include Stow-on-the-Go™ trekking pole attachments when you need your hands free, an internal hydration sleeve, compressions straps for load stabilisation and tool attachments.

Load range: Not an exact science but a combination of torso sizing, hipbelt sizing and stiffness, harness sizing and stiffness, frame type, framesheet type, stay type and intended use. Load range will vary based on the user, their experience, bone structure, body fat/muscle mass and their perception of comfort or penchant for suffering. Load ranges provide a starting point to help you determine what level of comfort you can expect from our packs given a specific load. This makes it easy to compare multiple packs and make the right decision for you based on the amount of gear you plan to carry.
AirScape™ backpanel: Lightweight, precision cut and accordion spread mesh-covered 3D foam that keeps the pack's weight close to your body for stability, provide cushioning and additional ventilation for a comfortable gear-carrying experience.
Care
After each trip, empty the pack including any food, dirt or spilled contents
Clean the zips regularly using mild soap, warm water and soft brush. This will help keep them in proper working condition.
Wipe the exterior of the chassis with a damp cloth or sponge
Clean the pack fabric by scrubbing stains and dirt with warm water, mild detergent and a soft brush or sponge
Use a wet towel with clean non-soapy water to wipe away any soap residue on the pack.
Hang your pack to dry outside or in a well ventilated area, out of direct sunlight.
Note: DO NOT immerse packs with a HighRoad™ Chassis in water
